Description

SourceGear Rust is a Visual Studio 2022 extension that just went 1.0 with the following features:

  • Intellisense features (using rust-analyzer)
  • Syntax coloring for .rs and .toml
  • Build, Clean, etc.
  • Debugging
  • Rust View, showing Cargo package/target/dependency hierarchy
  • Template to create a new project
  • Manage the installation of Rust tools from within Visual Studio

Considering adding a mention (in the Getting Started section?) for .NET folks who feel most at home in Visual Studio.
